Abstract

See full text

A coin discriminating device for discriminating put-in coins into a normal coin and a smaller coin, in which the maximum number of normal coins to be put-in can be easily changed. The coin discriminating device includes a turn plate having a cut-out portion and a coin discriminating pawl portion on a periphery thereof. A plurality of coin discriminating levers, each of which has an engaging portion able to engage with the coin discriminating pawl portion, abut against a periphery of corresponding received put-in coins in the cut-out portion, respectively. A biasing member biases a free end of the coin discriminating levers to a side of the turn plate, and a handle is provided for rotating the turn plate. A regulating member regulates a number of normal coins to be put in the cut-out portion of the turn plate, and a setting member is provided for setting the number of normal coins to be put-in. A clearing member is provided for clearing an engaging portion of an unnecessary coin discriminating lever out of a region to engage with the coin discriminating pawl portion.
